Nice tool to help you sort out problems accessing Exchange from out on the Internet. For more information see the blog on You Had Me At EHLO.. here and there is a quick presentation on Edge.TechNet.com here .

Quick transport rule to remove the recipient field of an SMTP message header from messages going out across an Edge Transport role server… Not going to win any awards but it’s worth a look if you haven’t tried mucking about with transport rules with Powershell . $Condition = Get-TransportRulePredicate...

I wrote a series of blogs a while back which might help.. ' Run your own Exchange Server Health Check....

Messaging is mission critical for most companies now and high availability is a major focus for any Exchange Server implementation. Exchange Server 2007 gives us some great options to enable us to achieve 'high availability' including LCR, CCR and, in SP1, SCR. ...but this is only really a part of the...
